Esther: God Behind the Scenes Series

God Behind the Scenes: Scene 4

When we face difficult times, or when God feels far away, we can be tempted to rush through those times to get to the blessing. But there are things that God can teach us, and ways that He wants to form us, that can only come through challenges. In the final talk of our Esther series, Shaninga looks at how we can trust God during difficulty, and prepare for times of blessing.

James 1
The sermon on James 1 and Romans 8 examines how we perceive ourselves. While social media and perfectionism can provide distorted reflections, Scripture acts as the “”true mirror,”” revealing that we are icons made in God’s image. By rejecting lies of inadequacy and embracing our adoption as children of “”Abba,”” we can understand that identity is a gift to be received, not a status to be constructed.

Nehemiah reminds us that we all have a unique contribution in serving God and seeking Him for the renewal of London.
